Слайд 3Gleb Kotelnikov is an inventor of a backpack parachute.
In a
theater he noticed a woman with a folded piece of cloth that after simple manipulations turned into an unfolded kerchief. This is how an operational principle of a parachute came to Gleb’s mind. Some other ideas of Gleb were never realized.

Слайд 9G. G. Ignatyev was the first to make a system of
simultaneous telephony and telegraphy with a single cable.
Слайд 10V. K. Zvorykin – inventor of television and telecasting on an

It was he who designed an iconoscope, a kinescope, basic color television. However he made most of his inventions in the USA, where he had emigrated in 1919.
Слайд 11A. M. Ponyatov is an inventor of a videotape recorder.
Like
Zvorykin, he emigrated in the years of the civil war and continued his work in the USA. In 1956, the Ampex company under his direction presented the world’s first commercial videotape recorder.

Слайд 13N. I. Pirogov – inventor of narcosis.
(at the time of the
Caucasian war 1847). He applied bandages soaked in starch which turned out to be very effective. Fixed plaster cast was also his invention.
Слайд 14G. A. Ilizarov created an iron apparatus that is used for
orthopedics, traumatology, surgery.
It helps to heal bones.
Слайд 15S. S. Bryukhonenko created the world first heart-lung machine
S. S. Bryukhonenko
created the world first heart-lung machine and proved that a man could recover after a clinical death, that operations could be made on an open heart, organs could be transplanted, an artificial heart could be made.
Слайд 16V. P. Demikhov – one of the transplantology founders.
He was the
first to transplant lungs and to make a model of an artificial heart. His experiments on dogs saved thousands of human lives.
Слайд 17S. N. Fedorov contributed to radial keratotomy development.
In 1973 he became
the world first to conduct operations for glaucoma patients at early stages. In a year he started to operate patients who had shortsightedness by applying dosed cuts on cornea according to the methods he had developed himself. All over the world such operarions have been conducted more than three million times.
Слайд 18A. N. Lodygin and his electric bulb.
In 1872 he patented
his invention that represented a vacuum flask with a carbon core inside.

In 1877 these single-use
lamps were used for illumination of some European streets, they worked only for two hours but were rather bright.
